ATAR
This course uses the ATAR as part of its selection considerations.
Regional Adjustment
RMIT automatically allocates adjustment factors to applicants from a low socio-economic status area for all certificate IV, diploma, advanced diploma, associate degree and degree level courses that select primarily on ATAR.
Low socio-economic status areas are determined by applying the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Socio-Economic Index for Areas (SEIFA) Index of Education and Occupation.
Alternate ways to meet Year 12 English prerequisite
If you do not meet the stated Year 12 English prerequisite, please refer to RMIT's minimum English language requirement for alternate ways to meet this requirement.
Subject adjustment
A study score of 30 in Biology, Environmental Science, Geography, Health and Human Development or Politics equals 2 aggregate points per study.
Overall maximum of 6 points.
SEAS (Special Entry Access Scheme)
Applicants who have experienced educational disadvantage are encouraged to apply for the Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS).
Depending on eligibility and your circumstances, a SEAS application may provide support for your course application.
